It’s Multi-Arch not multilib (which I’d rather see a quick death
of) but think of combinatory explosion (22 architectures makes a
number of 462 cross toolchains to build).
There were talks of adding a set, for example from amd64 to each
architecture.
And then, there’s the political issue with Debian-Ports…
Let’s rather stick to achievable goals first and worry about
inclusion later. (Actually, we might be able to get inclusion
by using the same uuencode trick atari-bootstrap uses, provided
all sources are in unstable proper – which they now are.)
But that’s for us Debian Developers to worry ☺ I have invested
some amount of research effort to get this far already.
